Taking your pet on a long trip? A subway station in Shanghai has seen several cases this month, and some people have been detained...
Summer vacation is the peak season for traveling
Many people keep small pets at home.
What to do?
Recently, there is a paragraph on Xiaohongshu
The video "How to take a hamster on a long trip" has become popular.
In the video,
A passenger hid a hamster in his hat.
I want to quietly take the high-speed rail,
As a result, he was stopped by the staff.
Finally, he could only
The hamster was given to the blogger who took the video.
This incident sparked heated discussions among netizens
Some said they put the hamster in a milk tea cup and carried the bag directly in; some bought a super large cup of Coke, drank the Coke, put the hamster in it and took it away; others said they hid it directly in their clothes pockets.
However, some netizens also said that
Although hamsters are small in size,
But once it slips away,
May chew through wires, get stuck in equipment,
It may even bite people, with disastrous consequences.
In June this year, a passenger brought a popular pet sugar glider on board an Eastern Airlines flight from Shanghai Hongqiao to Jinan. The sugar glider escaped into the cabin, causing the flight to be delayed for more than an hour. In the end, the passenger was detained for violating regulations by bringing his pet on board, causing the flight to be delayed due to safety issues, and disrupting public transportation order.
Nowadays, the range of pets is getting wider and wider.
But if you want to take it with you on public transportation,
There are strict regulations.
What pets are allowed?
What kind of legal risks will there be?
Rail transit: Some people do take chances
The reporter learned from Shanghai Shentong Metro that according to Article 9, Paragraph 9 of the "Shanghai Rail Transit Passenger Code", except for military and police dogs and licensed guide dogs, rail transit strictly prohibits bringing live poultry and pets into the station. If passengers violate the code, the rail transit company has the right to dissuade and stop them. If the stop is ineffective, report to the public security organs for handling in accordance with the law.
Railway: Consignment must also meet requirements
With regard to rail travel, according to the announcement of the National Railway Administration and the Ministry of Public Security on the "List of Prohibited and Restricted Items for Railway Passengers to Carry and Check in", it is clearly stated that except for guide dogs with work certificates, and aquatic animals such as fish, shrimp, crab, shellfish and mollusks that are food and packaged in closed boxes, no other live animals can be carried on board.
The staff at the Hongqiao Airport customer service hotline said: "Some airlines do not allow it, and it must be checked in. Just contact the airline. (Airport) security will not allow it."
During the investigation, the reporter found that most airlines currently only accept service dogs in the cabin, and only accept some cats and dogs as pets for check-in. During the check-in process, there are quite strict requirements for animal documents, species restrictions, pet status, packaging containers, and transportation temperature.
Mu Xianlan, senior deputy manager of China Eastern Airlines' service management department, said: "We can accept service dogs such as guide dogs and hearing dogs into the cabin. In addition, for other passengers, they can be checked in the oxygen cargo hold on the same flight. At present, our service scope covers most of China Eastern Airlines' direct flights. In terms of quantity, we support the same flight, and each passenger can check in one small animal on the same flight."
For pets that meet the requirements,
Some individual airlines said:
It can be accommodated in the cabin.
Some even offer pet charter services.
I also want to remind everyone
Pets cannot go up to the sky or down to the ground as they please.
If you want to travel long distances by public transportation
I really need to study the travel strategy carefully.
I really can't take it out.
You can choose to keep it at a friend's house or in a pet store.
Don't rely on luck
Don't trust all kinds of "wrong ideas" on the Internet.
